Well, since this is the place to make introductions, I thought I would say hello to everyone.
I had always thought of home brewing as something I'd love to do "someday". I think anyone that drinks beer has, at one point or another, said "Wouldn't it be awesome to brew my own beer?"
A few weeks ago, a friend of mine called me and said that he was starting to get into the hobby, and I took this as a sign that it was time for "someday" to become "today."
I picked up all my essentials from Austin Home Brew, along with a Celis extract recipe.
I cooked my first batch last night, and I'm already seeing bubbling 12 hours later. I'm incredibly stoked about this venture, and I've already got plans for two or three of my next batches in mind. I think I'm going to go with a double chocolate, and, for the summer, I'll be doing a lawnmower variety.
I appreciate everyone's time and input on here, and, hopefully, I'll be able to add a little experience to the years of knowhow already assembled here.
